Summary

[edit]
Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description A political cartoon from the Clarion-Ledger which describes how the Democrats sought to use the scandals of Congressman Jon Hinson for their gain
Author or

Clarion-Ledger
Source (WP:NFCC#4) https://www.newspapers.com/clip/20150799/clarionledger/
Date of publication August 22, 1980
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) Mississippi's 4th congressional district special election, 1981
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) The image will help to flesh out exactly how Democrats reacted to the scandals of Congressman Jon Hinson in 1980, and in the leadup to his resignation in 1981. Democrats avoided discussing his arrest, but in doing so, also drew attention to their moral high ground and to the scandal itself.
Not replaceable with
free media because
(WP:NFCC#1)
There are no sources that capture the difference between what the Democrats were saying and what that action meant in context. This cartoon is the only source found so far that is able to contextualize this dichotomy.
Not replaceable with
textual coverage because
(WP:NFCC#1)
The cartoon serves to show how the denial worked in practice where it can be hard to contextualize it in text. There also aren't any sources that state in plain text what this cartoon does (the glee that Democrats viewed the scandals from), which is important context to view the political ramifications of the scandal from.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) The image has already had its resolution lowered. This will be the only non-free image in the page, and it will only be used in Mississippi's 4th congressional district special election, 1981.
Respect for
commercial opportunities
(WP:NFCC#2)
The image's usage on Wikipedia is specifically for its historical context and is unlikely to hurt its commercial prospects.
